In America, we don’t put up with would-be kings. NO KINGS is a national day of action and mass mobilization in response to increasing authoritarian excesses and corruption from Trump and his allies. We’ve watched as they’ve cracked down on free speech, detained people for their political views, threatened to deport American citizens, and defied the courts. They’ve done this all while continuing to serve and enrich their billionaire allies.
 On June 14 – Flag Day – Donald Trump wants tanks in the street and a made-for-TV display of dominance for his birthday. A spectacle meant to look like strength. But real power isn’t staged in Washington. It is rising up everywhere else – from city blocks to small towns, from courthouse steps to community parks, we’re taking action to reject authoritarianism – and show the world what democracy really looks like. A core principle behind all No Kings events is a commitment to nonviolent action. All participants should seek to de-escalate any potential confrontation.
Carpooling to Madison is encouraged! Hopefully, this link to Sign Up Genius will help identify who wants to carpool, and in the comment section who is willing to drive and how many riders they can accommodate. It's an effort to try to facilitate carpooling. It's about an hour drive from LCUUC to the Capitol, so I indicated a start time of 10:45am to leave Hartland. I'm not sure if this will be helpful or will just cause confusion. I wanted to give it a try. Thanks for your understanding and patience. Cathy Wendorf Peterson, on behalf of the LCUUC Social Action Committee.
